Song 367: Desfado

Yes, it’s another song in the language of Portuguese, but this is actually a Portuguese artist, not a Brazilian one. Desfado, performed by Ana Moura, is a happy sounding song that’s really about sadness.

I started doing research on Fado songs, one of Portugal’s musical exports, since we’re planning a trip to Portugal in the future. So far, this one is my favorite, it is very catchy. But check out the lyrics… not as happy.
